She has 10 weeks left until her baby with husband J.P. Rosenbaum is born.

But former Batchelorette Ashley Hebert is already proving that her maternal instincts are strong, as she doted on her tiny Yorkie dog Boo, while walking along a Miami port.

The pregnant reality TV star, who met her husband on the ABC show in 2012, payed full attention to her tiny counterpart as she dressed comfortably with her blossoming bump on full show.
